Memphis, Term.. -Oct. 6.—Despite a sub-vtantial increase in domestic consumption of cotton through the • national defense program, the -na- lion will have another 2,500,000-bale surplus, this year, Robert J. Mur ray president of the New York stock exchange, said in an interview to- Tlight. “Probably 8,500,000 bales will be needed in this country, mainly, of course, due to the national defense program and the boom that will ac company it,” Murray predicted. “But the increase is certainly not going to offset the loss in foreign markets that the war has brought.” The administration cannot be ■blamed, he added, nor can the sit uation be attributed to “anybody.” “Jt just hapnened and we are cer tainly going to make the best of it.” Mvirray said cotton business in the New York exchange has shrunk 70 per cent in the past 15 years. Relaxing of fhe Johnson, act to permit disposal of cotton abroad on credit and setting up a cartel with South Afherica would aid in mar keting cotton, he assefted. “Ifliiir... bases are legitimate • pay-: ment for the destroyers, some similar deal could be made for cotton,” Mur ray said.

She has become particularly well known *lW thought of preparedness is not new to Bell Telephone workers. In faa, the South’s and the nation’s vast telephone sjfstem is what it is today main ly because preparedness is one of the fundamenui principles of the Bell System’s policy. Telephone people are con stantly at war with the elements, lire, flood and hurricane. They are prej^r^ in advance to meet the emergency whenever and’wherever danger strikes. Rapidly changing industrial idemands--shifting populations —quick expansions in some pbces and conTraernrHs at others—ever-changing prob lems of supply and demand, are conditions under which all tele phone people are accustomed to working. Years of ex|jerience in antic ipating, planning for and meet ing these exacting demands strengthen the confidence of telephone workers in their abil ity to provide for the needs of the South and the nation under any conditions that may arise.
